i hope everything goes ok! I am so proud about being a mum again every 1 thought that with my first my daughter aimee i wouldnt be able to handle the pressure and i understood that as i was only 14 when i fell pregnant but now i am 16 i think i will be able to handle it better especially with the knowledge i have gained from caring for aimee x

yeah we are still going strong things were a bit rocky and then when i found out i was pregnant again we became closer and realised that as long as we had each other and our daughter and of course the bump nothing else mattered and we needed to put them first!! he has been amazing and on the weekends we take it in turn to have a night out so we dont feel like we are missing out on much x

I would not worry , you will be a great mam, and your child will get involved with everything you do with the new one, and you will see him~her, grow up very quickley as they will think there the big one!!!!

Hi ladies

There is 20months between my eldest 2 boys. I was fine when I found out I was pregnant, it was everyone else who seemed to have issue, which then made me a little concerned.

However I had my two little boys ( not so little now, eldest just turned 16 ) and didn't find it any harder than having one.
We would cuddle up together at feeding time and I would play while the baby slept and we would all have an afternoon nap together.

I'm not saying its easy or not hard work, what I am saying is enjoy it and you will soon find a routing that suites you all, so have fun and try not to worry you'll be fine !!!

Good Luck to all
Donna x x x

Hey hun i was really worried i wouldnt cope when my mum dropped me back home with my first born she stayed to help me get straight and then she left so i could get some rest while he was asleep.Only i couldnt sleep i was so scared that something would happen to him while i was asleep i kept getting up and looking into the moses basket where he was lying to check on him and he was absolutly fine.now hes got the terrible 2s and i really no iv got him lol.but wouldnt be without him now he is very loving and its gret to wake up have a cuddle off him every mornin and im pregnant again now i showed him the pic of my first scan and he is really excited bless him im worried sometimes already how im gonna cope but it will come naturally in time hun its just something you have to adapt to and when the time comes i bet you will be a brill mum and you will wonder what all that worrying was about.
